Carolyn exposes not only her husband, but Warren Jeffs, both of which are an example of hundreds of evil men in the polygamist community just like them. There is no doubt that this true story is extremely depressing and terribly frustrating to read about, but I am so glad that I have read this book.
It is also important to know the history of polygamy to know how it has evolved, to see just where it all went wrong. Although I love that Carolyn really brings the reader to the core, the basic signs that her polygamist culture was screwed up that she could not see as a child and later on through life. I’ve heard that many who have enjoyed this book also felt it had too much history and not enough of the present. This book is definitely a page turner and did not leave my hands until I finished it all. Now about the book…Īll throughout the book, Carolyn holds your attention with such great detail of everything she writes about. I usually do not read the Preface in beginning of books but there was something about Escape that made me read it and it really reeled me in. So I finished reading, Escape by Carolyn Jessop earlier this week and definitely wanted to share my thoughts.
